Tips

Hiking

After standing silent since 1943, when the building was struck by lightning, Horsey Windpump has been brought back to life with a winding cap and turning sails. From the top, you're rewarded with magnificent panoramic views of the Norfolk countryside and Horsey Mere. There's also a tea room.

There is a small coffee shop, if you need a break.

Hiking

The National Trust maintains a car park right next to the mill. You can also get tickets to the mill there. It's worth a visit, as you'll not only learn details about the mill, but also gain an insight into the miller's life.
